Tonya's Created a Monster!

I'm just bursting with ideas for quilts with letters now!! I was dreaming about them last night. I gave a lecture on geography of the US today and had to rush home to start a new project. I moved a LOT as a kid and seem to have continued as an adult so far. I thought I'd make a quilt for myself with places where I've lived. Stay tuned - it's going to be a long list of places! (And don't worry, I haven't abandoned the fishy letters, either.)

May Britt asked people to post seasonal quilts. After spending so much of the summer near the Arctic Circle, I no longer know what my favorite season is. I will post a photo of fall, though.

This soup is fall to me. I found the recipe on this awesome Estonian food blog. I've made quite a few of her recipes, but I'm not sure if I've linked to her blog before. I made these for a party two weekends ago, this savory pie in July for another party at my place, and this jam for some gifts back in May. Check it out (especially if you love beets and berries like I do!)

The trouble is once you start you can't stop and ideas start coming. I've started getting them down on paper (or computer) before I forget. Cutting my 3rd letter quilt and designing the 4th. Thanks for the link to the "corners" site on your last post. So much easier that a tube.

I knew that was Borscht - my bubbie would be proud! (Do you add sour cream?) I did not read the recipe... So I will ask 2 more questions... hot or cold? do you add raw veggies like cucumber? I have had this so many ways... I like it cold like a salad with cucumber & sour cream. :o)
